With autumn well and truly in swing it’s time to start enjoying the more warming and indulgent foods in life. From juicy apples, mangos and grapes to extra special veggies like purple sprouting broccoli, beetroot and asparagus, you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to cooking up something nice! Find out what foods you should be eating this October and discover some of our favourite seasonal recipes in today’s blog…
Get all the taste, texture and flavour by opting for seasonal vegetables to spruce up your dish. Some of our favourites include artichokes, mushrooms and asparagus – which come together nicely for a seasonal pizza; broccoli and potatoes for the must-have roast; and oriental favorites of Chinese greens, kaffir lime leaves and pak choi for something a little special!
Just because it’s autumn, doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy a yummy fruit salad. While berries may slowly begin to disappear this month, other classics, such as apples, grapes, bananas, mango and damsons are great options to choose from.
October is all about embracing rich, hearty flavours so you’ll find no light or bland meat in this month’s recipes. Beef, mutton, pork, veal and game meats are just some of our favourites, while halibut and lemon sole are great options when it comes to fish.
The Bake It Yourself team, at Neff, have been busy creating delicious menus for the season – allowing you to take advantage of local produce at its tastiest! Here are just a few of our October favourites:
Perfect as a starter or a snack to enjoy at any time you’re feeling the October chill, this scrumptious soup is hearty, warming and has a delightful sweet kick. We think it’s safe to say your kids will love it too. Taking just 25 minutes to prepare and 40 minutes to cook, using Neff’s CircoTherm, it’s rather quick to whip up too!
Whether you’re entertaining or looking for good grub the whole family can enjoy, the mushroom risotto is always a winner. Featuring some of the month’s best vegetables – such as mushrooms, peas and asparagus – it’s also full of fantastic nutrients. Pop on your Neff hob for 25-30 minutes and enjoy!
If you’re celebrating the season with a party, or having a Halloween do, these pork and boar patties will go down a treat. Pop into a grilled bap with some seasonal salad and you’ll have bite-sized delights guaranteed to wow your guests. What’s more, Neff’s CircoRoast helps you get the texture of the burgers just right too!
Ideal for Halloween, these yummy flapjack treats will satisfy adults and kids alike. Bake a batch of 12 in your Neff CircoTherm and enjoy!
CONTEMPORARY ELEGANCE FOR A PERIOD HOME
When Zee and Adam decided to transform their kitchen, they explored several companies before selecting Kitchen Design Centre in Barrowford.
Contemporary elegance for a period home
It was Simon Thomas, the Showroom Manager, who stood out with his exceptional design expertise and ability to offer creative, tailored solutions.
The couple were particularly impressed by the Barrowford showroom, liking its large size and the variety of stunning displays. They liked the main flagship display and it inspired their final design, as they adopted many features including the large island and Graphite and Taupe colour scheme.
Seeking a modern update to their traditional kitchen, Zee and Adam tasked Simon with reimagining the space while respecting the period property’s original features. To achieve their vision, they decided to remove a wall and merge two rooms, creating a spacious, open-plan kitchen and living area that now spans the length of their home.

A STUNNING CLASSICAL KITCHEN FOR A LUXURY APARTMENT
When Karen and Peter downsized from their farm, they opted for a luxurious apartment in a historic hall in Holmfirth, Yorkshire. For their dream kitchen, they turned to Lauren Couperthwaite at Kitchen Design Centre, Housing Units, Failsworth.
Initially considering a local bespoke kitchen company, Karen found they couldn’t match the extensive product range and expert design skills of Kitchen Design Centre.
The brief was to celebrate the apartment’s grand architectural features—high ceilings, natural light, and intricate coving—while crafting a kitchen that blended seamlessly with the home’s traditional aesthetic. Lauren’s choice of a pale sage green ash-effect eucalyptus finish brought timeless charm, perfectly paired with classic handles.
